My First and Second Tibetan Mastiff

[looby73]

As Ruth said about the weight, every dog is different. I have 2 TM's and our older one (Zeus) is much more of an athletic build while the younger (Hades) is a bit of a monster (they're from different parents). At the 7 month health check Zeus was 34kg (74lbs) while Hades was 48kg (105lb)! He's not fat, just a very big boy!
Zeus has definitely gone through I'm not bothered about eating phases and neither of them are greedy. They'll eat when they're hungry and leave it if they're not.
We dont do raw but they have chicken and steak with their kibble, occasionally fish but they dont seem as interested in that. We tried Zeus with tripe once but he did NOT like that!

Thank you looby73, I guess only time will tell. Your tms look great which is Zeus and which is Hades?

Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about their weight just yet. I'm sure they'll catch up now they're being well looked after.
Thanks, Zeus is B&T and Hades is gold.

Is your pressa intact? Are your TMs intact? How are they with each other when food or toys are not involved?
Btw your TMs look intimidating. I love their eyes.

Tojvan, my Presa is intact and the tm's are intact. The Presa will allow any dog, human or animal to take his food or touch him while he is eating unless I tell him to do otherwise. And when food or bones aren't involved they all see very happy, they play a lot, no growling or baring of teeth and even with toys they just pull them away from each other and pass them around but, food and bones are a completely different story. And thank you so much .
Mooshi's Mummy: Thank you
